I have a horrible sweet tooth.
Luckily, my mom bought some amazing Phish Food Frozen Yogurt (my favorite) and when I am craving something sweet, I take a scoop. I try to make that pint last as long as possible since I don't want to pig out, and my mom hardly ever gets it so I want to savor it!
A few weeks ago, my mom didn't have anything sweet in the house! Gasp! It was so she wouldn't eat anything bad, but I was seriously in need of some sort of dessert like thing. So, I found a recipe for a mug cookie! I had never made one before and it was just SCREAMING my name. I made my "healthy" by using whole wheat flour and I mixed in Mini M&Ms because that just made me happy. It seriously took me less than 5 minutes and it was awesome! Check out my mug cookie!

I like mug cakes and make one whenever I'm out of a dessert. I think mug cakes 'hit the spot' when you need a treat. Thanks for sharing this with Foodie Friends Friday.
